A tip for artists applying to the ACC shows
I forgot to put this in my last newsletter.
I'm going to post this in the jury forum also.
JAS has a different policy than ZAPP. Though they both allow you to change images in the application after submitting it, ZAPP makes you jump through hoops by contacting the show and asking them if they will set your application to incomplete or exception. JAS on the other hand, allows changes in your application right up until midnight (Pacific time) of the final closing date.
For example, ACC deadline is August 1st but there is a late deadline of August 8th. If you submit your application by August 1st, you can change your images without penalty up until August 8th.
I'm saying this because I'm currently working with an artist that needs her work rephotographed for the ACC application. She was nervous that the deadline was coming up Wednesday and it would cost a higher jury fee of she missed it.
No problem. I advised her to apply today using the images currently in her profile and that I would changed them after I photograph her work next week.

ZAPP and JAS are the biggest art show application systems. ZAPP much larger than JAS.

As a newbie, what is the ACC and the JAS, I tried googling them and didn't find anything relating to art? thanks Jackie
Absolutely. That's how the JAS system works.

This is good info; and I think it is true for all JAS applications late deadlines.
